Mohsin Tanveer | Agroecology | Best Researcher Award

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mohsin Tanveer | Agroecology | Best Researcher Award

Associate Professor | Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography | China

Dr. Mohsin Tanveer is an Associate Professor (Research) at the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China, where he advances research in plant molecular physiology and sustainable agriculture. He earned his Ph.D. in Agriculture from the University of Tasmania, Australia, focusing on tissue-specific reactive oxygen species signaling and ionic homeostasis in quinoa and spinach under salinity stress, following M.Sc. (Hons) and B.Sc. (Hons) degrees in Agronomy from the University of Agriculture Faisalabad, Pakistan. His key research interests include molecular biology and climate change, nutrient metabolism, abiotic stress tolerance, and halophyte physiology, supported by several international projects under young talent programs. Dr. Tanveer has an extensive publication record with high-impact contributions to The Crop Journal, Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, Trends in Plant Science, and Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, alongside co-editing books with Springer on topics such as mineral biofortification and stress tolerance in plants. His scientific impact has been recognized globally, being ranked among the top 2% of scientists by Stanford University and Elsevier since 2021 and listed among Australia’s top 40 rising stars in agricultural research. Over the course of his career, he has received multiple honors, including the University of Tasmania HDR Scholarship and international research fellowships. Beyond his research, he actively contributes to academic publishing as an editorial board member for leading journals including Plant Growth Regulation, BMC Plant Biology, Frontiers in Agronomy, Frontiers in Plant Science, Antioxidants, Biology, and Agriculture-MDPI. His work bridges plant physiology, molecular biology, and agronomy, with a strong focus on advancing food security and crop resilience under changing climatic conditions, establishing him as a leading figure in plant stress biology and sustainable agriculture research. He has 8671 citations from 104 publications, with an h-index of 47.
